Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
matched the filename. Now put the list after the filename. E.g.
filename: vt220keys.1
Keyword: vt220
was: vt220(1), vt220keys(1) - define SHIFTED [...]
now: vt220keys(1), vt220(1) - define SHIFTED [...]

makewhatis.local - start makewhatis(1) only for file systems
physically mounted on the system
Running makewhatis from /etc/weekly for rw nfs-mounted /usr may kill
your NFS server -- all clients start makewhatis at the same time!
So use this wrapper instead calling makewhatis directly.

man pages up to mdoc guidelines and fix some minor formatting glitches.
Also fixed a number of man pages to not abuse the .Xr macro to
display functions and path names and a lot of other junk.
more like binaries. This is hard to do using a general rules because
the natural `.sh:' rule has a null suffix and null suffixes are broken.
(With 1.1.5's make they sometimes work and sometimes cause core dumps.
2.0's make has a botched fixed and they never work.)
now, DO_COMPRESS. This controls whether or not catpages are compressed or
not (on by default, since little else uses the catpages and those few things
that do can always configure in a `zmore' in place of more or something, and
saving space is more important, IMHO).
Uncompression support is now on by default since that's the only way to support
mixed-mode environments. If you don't like it, just don't compress your man
pages and it won't be used! :-). Supports gzip. You can also compress
the man pages themselves (or gzip them) now and it will work.
